In YE 44 the ISS Shiori was once again used for Motoyoshi Eidan and Motoyoshi Kuroko when they left along with the Motoyoshi Colonization Fleet¹⁾. Motoyoshi Eidan and Motoyoshi Kuroko were sent out ahead of the Colonization Initiative Alliance fleet to ensure their safety given the tumultuous climate after the terrorist attack on the capitol dome²⁾. They were accompanied by a select group of elite peers for Eidan to develop his leadership as they developed skills in an elite, unique educational environment.

With the ship's ownership returned to Motoyoshi Eidan, the designation was once again changed back to the ISS Shiori.³⁾⁴⁾

In the first month of YE 45, the ship and its young crew encountered an inhabited system, far out rimward from the Kikyo Sector (In the Kosuke Sector), designated YC-56K⁵⁾ by their charting system. Submerged beneath the ocean on the planet Becurn (YC-56K III). The crew, led by Motoyoshi Eidan, is observing a brutal war between the Cemlae and the Mocadians. After weeks of covert observation, the ship decides to depart due to the escalating conflict, carrying valuable information about the warring nations.

Motoyoshi Eidan, along with Kuroko and other crew members, experience a mix of emotions during their time underwater and in space. They engage in banter, sharing playful moments and bonding, providing relief from the stress of their mission. Leon's curiosity and casual presence add to the dynamic. Kuroko's jealousy surfaces when Motoyoshi Eidan teases her about indulging in his strawberries. Tomoko's cryptic comment about strawberries adds intrigue to the situation, leaving everyone guessing.

Hitomi, the ship's leader and the young group's sensei, announces her departure and hints at an important mission. This news surprises the crew, and they prepare to assemble in uniform to learn more about her mission and the ship's future. As the crew navigates their roles and relationships aboard the ISS Shiori, they remain curious and anticipatory, ready for the challenges and adventures that lie ahead.⁶⁾

Little do the young team know they are on route to the ISS Evenstar (Yoi-no-Myōjō) to become the cynosures and leaders of the new Yugumo Merchant Spacy operated Motoyoshi Clan flagship. Hitomi once again assumes the role as their Sensei and Guide but now from a more standoff position as the Fleetmaster of the newly established Yugumo Corporation Orchid Fleet.⁷⁾
